Did you know that Scrapbook Circle creates exclusive digital die cuts to coordinate perfectly with each of their monthly kits? This month's was an amazing 12 x 12 border of X's and O's which coordinates perfectly with the Love Notes kit.

My absolute favorite thing to do with background die cuts is to cut them on silhouette out of white cardstock and back them with fun patterned papers. The Love Notes kit also came with a piece of aqua corrugated cardstock from Fancy Pants and I thought it would make a fun background peeking through the die cut X's and O's!

I am also a big fan of filling open spaces of my digital die cut backgrounds with fun embellishments. That was easy to do with Love Notes and the add ons. I filled most of the O's with patterned papers that I punched with a 3/4" punch and popped up with dimensional adhesive. Several of the O's I filled in with the Fancy Pants flair from the Hot Stuff add on.

I was thinking that this border shrunk down would make a cute card front too!

The Riley and Company stamps and dies were so much fun to play with! Check them out for sure! But first hop on over to Katie Skiff's blog! If you ever get lost along the way, just head on back to the CardMaker blog because they will have the whole list!

For my post on the Scrapbook Circle blog, I was challenged to use The Project Life Ephemera from the kit Love Notes. I decided to use them as the focal element for a bunch of cards. Once I got going, it was easy to make 4 different cards in 4 different shapes and several themes.

Valentine's kits are always my favorite because they are so versatile and can be used for so many different projects! If you feel the same, you will LOVE this month Love Notes. Be sure to check out the add ons too. This month I bought both the Hot Stuff add on, True Love add on and the More January paper add on.
